NEW PAINT DAY! Tomorrow is new paint day!!!!!

Also! : there is a very patient person on the @jacksons-art.bsky.social phone line who just had to cope with me ordering 29 paints by pigment index and honestly they deserve a cup of tea and any dropped toast to forever fall butter side up ♥️

Special Session Brain Computer Interfaces, LETS GO!

First up : enhancing pilot training using adaptive training through mental state / cognitive workload prediction using EEG to find functional connectivity between frontal and parietal lobes.

“Stability Analysis of Aged Locomotion in Physically Simulated Virtual Environments” Jialin Yu McMaster University

Interesting interesting!! Simulating aged gait. Use this to better simulate virtual gait and to simulate safety of environment surfaces!

conference slide “ why social vr are technically unique”

conference slide “what is wrong with the internet“

conference slide, interesting paper “Social Virtual Reality Platform Comparison and Evaluation Using a Guided Group Walkthrough Method”

conference slide “open problems”

Day 3 keynote UCL’s Professor Anthony Steed on social VR and metaverses. “The internet was not built to deliver synchronous experiences” Top tips: ease of social interaction in Gorilla Tag.

does block and unblock cause someone to unfollow you?

Fascinating

Does soft blocking work here?

conference slide “importance of blinks in social interactions”

conference slide “blinks in virtual environments ”

conference slide “key findings on blinking in our study ”

More from Prof. Dr. Elisabeth
André’s AIxVR Keynote:

Blink rate as a measure
of social synchrony - I’ve not seen a great deal of research on this in VR, but these three slides were informative!!

A close of of a screen at a conference hall “generating behaviours for virtual personalities”

A close of of a screen at a conference hall “ai enhanced multimodal communication: how to build rapport between humans and agents in xVR”

AIxVR Lets GO!

So far we’ve covered: social coaching AI, virtual co-presence, AI signing avatars, collaboratively generating AI voices using GAN,
blink rate to assess social
interactions!

Okay so, catching up here.

Some v interesting social experiments seem to play out in early days of new platform

No ads rn (great!)

Light on filters: beware reply-bots (block/report/dont engage)

Interesting thread below on why it’s happening

Ok. Something I’m liking about bluesky is that right now its chucking good infographics at me

twitter had just become world news rants and memes

my insta shows me art (and art+tech)

Had been missing having data science in my feeds!

This lack of edit button is going to be interesting.

Spotted mistake in previous post.

😖😫😣😩 but we learn from mistakes, so leaving it up forever.

Ok what other buttons does this thing have?
